I had a partnership in a business where my 2 partners had a lot of experience and i had little. When planning, they'd be quick to let me know "you're not really in the xxxxxx industry so you...". Finally, one day I lost my shit and said "look dipshits, i've got a ton more experience than either of you.. why? I've actually ran successful companies. I've actually had 100s of employees. What you fail to understand is that leadership is leadership, management is management, sales is sales, organization is organization, planning is planning, execution is execution, hiring is hiring, accounting is accounting... " and so on.
Politicians make shitty decisions all day long with other peoples lives and money and rarely suffer the consequences for those decisions. A business person has to pay the consequences for every single decision he makes. I'd certainly say the guy managing 100s of businesses and 1000s of people and actually growing and building wealth and staying in the black is infinitely more qualified to manage than a group of people that only know how to lose other peoples money, and then take more from them,.. so they can then lose that as well.
